In the continuing saga of the remarkable life of a blogging family, my son and I received an invite to preview the newest installment in the Wimpy Kid movie franchise, Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days. As luck would have it, and this is the truth, my son had picked up this series of books 2 days before we received the invite. It had just saved our summer reading, and then we found out we could actually meet the author of the series and 2 of our favorite actors!
I can’t give away any spoilers until tomorrow’s movie review, all I can say is we loved the movie and everyone needs to see it!
So here is my son asking 2 questions of the cast. Forgive my amateuristic video skills.
My son asked, “Are you like your characters in the movie?”
My son asked, “Do you have a friend like Rowley in middle school?
Many thanks to Jeff Kinney, author of this great series, and actors Zachary Gordon (Greg Heffley) and Robert Capron (Rowley Jefferson).
Disclosure: We were invited on a press junket to review the movie, meet the some of the cast and the author, and eat! Thanks to NYCSingleMom for the great questions.
Love it!!!
Your son has a future as a news reporter or journalist!
How awesome! We love the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books and movie! My daughter would have loved the opportunity to ask the cast questions like your son did!
He just might wind up being a journalist! He is very mature for his age!
Missed this one, I can’t believe how much your son has grown, seems like yesterday when he was keeping you up all night as a wee little one. You should be so proud, he is following in your foot steps as a public speaker. Sorry, I enjoyed the movie premier review. Thanks as usual for a great review, from any one on your blog!!!
